Lack of water will result in reduced production and quality. One possible approach to reducing the effect of drought on plant productivity is through the addition of calcium and / or boron as foliar sprays. Boron, Calcium and Both of them. Drought induced a sharp decrease in seeds fresh weight, seeds protein content and number of filled seeds. Application of mixture of boron & calcium induced a significant increase in seeds weight and seeds lipids content. Boron separately was the best for seeds protein and soluble sugars content. Catalase expression was detected as a single band for all treatments where peroxidase isozymes were increased to 8 isozymes seven of these were expressed only with B treatment Generally, the RNA-DD showed a variation in gene expression between the control and the...
